Fry-Day…Does That Mean Donuts?
- Thread starter rideit
- Start date
It would have been one of them if I had been refused, I addressed that in my first post. My best friends wedding.
Well, you should all be happy for me then. But they still might not let me in the country tonight after travelling for 48 hours. It wouldn't be the worst day of my life, but would rank up there with awful experiences that were no fault of my own.
Let's thread drift, what were some of your worst days?
dad dying, wife's dad dying, breaking my back.
This is not a smart thing to do...
Ok, that’s three. IF I get denied entry, I’ll call this maybe #5? I too broke 6 vertebrae in my back (body cast). But that was my fault.
6?! yech... that sounds not fun. but you are still riding (or so I gather), so I find that very encouraging! This is one of the reasons I likes the monkey so much!
FWIW, for me too it was my own fault...
Wtf, Friday’s aren’t supposed to be this busy.
Worst day is also the best day because I didn’t die. Flipped a piece of farm equipment and got flung like a pumpkin. Broke 12 or 13 bones, I can’t remember. Lots of plates, screws and 2 blood transfusions good as newish.

i don't have many worst days thankfully. but some of the cases i've seen at work were other peoples' worst days
A friend broke his scaphoid last fall during a race last year, after sailing through a pine tree forest (@mykel on Smith in the lower fast skinny trail section). It never healed and now is going under the knife in a week or two, right as the season ramps up.So I spent my morning at the childrens hospital. My son had a follow-up x-ray for his broken scaphoid (still broken), and got a new fibreglass cast on. He's happy caus' it's orange, and he got the last roll of orange in the 'body shop'. TIL that the scaphoid is a complicated bone to heal, I guess because it doesn't get as much blood supply as other bones. It can take 8-10 weeks (over the usual 5-6). So he has a second follow-up appointment in another month.
Sucks. Hope your kids fairs better.
Those sandwiches are so good. Had one at Mayberry's in Brevard and just wanted MOAR.
I mean to be fair, part of it is your fault for not checking your own vaccine record and passport requirement (most countries have that, to prevent you being abroad while it expires).
But I do hope you get across, it would suck to miss it.
But wait, weddings suck!
I was refused entry into the US once, that sucked. Lots of sitting around and retina scans. Luckily us Canadian's don't have a visa or anything similar that can be permanently revoked, so after a few years of waiting I was clear to return.
Yeah, they aren't supposed to be, but always are for whatever stupid reason.
I'm with @jonKranked , its time for beer(s).
If it wouldn’t likely cause a divorce/worst day, I would be drinking Long Island Iced Teas at some airport bar! Luckily I brought a gummy for the flight.
For me, the adage is certainly true:
“There is no problem that alcohol couldn’t make worse”.

In other travel talk, I rented one of those Minute Suites for 2 hours. Super expensive, but really helped me decompress.
North of here and the wind is in my favor. @JohnE is who we probably need to check on.
Edit: Seems that maybe it's been knocked down, but the wind is getting a lot worse, so I sure hope that's the case.

I hear ya. My wifes best friends mother makes the best rice and beans, problem is you have to go to Holguin to get some. My wife is going in May, wonder if she can sneak me some back?Great. Now I'm hungry for Cuban food...
That section is some seriously janky fun, but not much room for error with lots pointy death sticks everywhere. Sucks for his season, but hope your buddy's knifework goes well and he continues to ride.
Other than the normal parents and siblings dying, it would be being sat on by the cow.
That was the one that fucked me permanently. November 28, 2013 is a day that should have never existed. IMNSHO of course.

...on the plus side, daytime nookie.
In this day of Tots and Pears, saying "Sending healing vibes" sounds a bit disingenuous. However, I can not ever be accused of being on the bandwagon let alone at the parade, so FTS...
Sending healing vibes for the little one.
Getting a bit of afternoon delight goes a long way to brighten up a dark day.
Will today be the day I start working on my 11yrs of unlodged tax whatevers?
No.
No.
Someone else is going to have a “worst day”.You mastrubated in it, didn't you?
Clean up on aisle three.
No Lube, No Wank. I didn't make the rules.You mastrubated in it, didn't you?
I asked the orthopaedic dr and the cast technician if they thought it would be ok to form the cast in such a way that the boy could ride a bike... they both gave me the same look my wife did when I brought it up. so I let it go...
but maybe it's an option for your buddy @canadmos ?!
felt like absolute ass during my ride today. wasn't even a particularly big ride, but i was 100% spent after. feeling a bit better now. time in the hills is still time in the hills.
new to me 38 arrived today. will unbox and inspect later.

I am not saying you need a Secus for the 38 .... but you need a Secus for the 38. Is amazing on my 36.
Had to change a lightbulb in the Toaster which was covered in yellow pollen. Decided to hose it off and that turned into a full wash, then cleaned the windows which then lead to a microfiber cloth wipe down followed by a thorough vacuuming. By the time the interior was clean the car was covered in pollen again. Not the worst day of my life so there is that.
internesting...will see how it feels. i rode a bunch of rough downhills today before realizing my rear shock was in its climb/xc setting. so maybe i'm not the most sensitive ride to appreciate secus benefits?
Repeat that experiment with the fork locked out and see what happens.internesting...will see how it feels. i rode a bunch of rough downhills today before realizing my rear shock was in its climb/xc setting. so maybe i'm not the most sensitive ride to appreciate secus benefits?
All good fellas, thnx for asking 'squeeb...North of here and the wind is in my favor. @JohnE is who we probably need to check on.

Wind storm broke some rotted out fence posts earlier in the year. Went about replacing them and realized that someone had poured about a yard of concrete per post. Was about to have THE WORST DAY EVER thinking I was going to have to dig it out when I realized I could just clean out the old rotten posts from inside the concrete and insert new ones in the old holes.
Just eat the other half of the Cuban. Cold. It was still awesome. The ham, juice, pickles, and loose pork fat congealed into a delicious fatty mess. Spicy V8 to wash it down.
I keep a jar in my fridge.
